thanx, that's indeed a bug in the addon.

here's a fixed version:
service.scrobbler.lastfm-4.0.3.zip
but in order to use it, you'll need at least Kodi 19-alpha2 !

[Depeche72]

Has Last.FM changed something because my addon suddenly doesn't work anymore?
Or am I the only one that it doesn't work for maybe?

Update:
Never mind this.
I had a backup of my Windows user profile so I just copied the addon folder service.scrobbler.lastfm and from addon_data the folder service.scrobbler.lastfm and now it works.
Have no idea why it stopped working because everything looked ok.

Stopped working here.

Using service.scrobbler.lastfm 4.0.3 on Kodi 19.3 Windows 10 x64. I get an  error notification when starting Kodi, and here is the relevent part of my log:

This was previously working fine in my Kodi 19.1

@drvid could you try if deleting this file fixes the error:
C:\Users\David\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\addon_data\service.scrobbler.lastfm\lastfm.xml

there are no changes between 19.1 and 19.3 that would cause addons to break as far as i know..
if the suggestion above doesn't solve your issue, just let me know and i'll dig deeper into it.

[drvid]

Great that fixed it thanks! The lastfm.xml file was indeed full of NULL bytes. I wonder what would have caused that.

Hello, may I please ask for help? I tried to use last.fm add-on with music played by tidal2 add-on, but it does not scrobble. There is no record about last.fm add-on in kodi log:

Actually, I discovered that last.fm does scrobble from tidal2 add-on, but not songs started manually, only songs that are played as follow up in album. Therefore 2nd sond and further. This seems to be a bug. Jan

[ronie]

if you can reproduce the issue and capture it in a Debug Log, it might give me some clues why it isn't working as it should.

[smithjd15]

I keep my artist tags empty whenever I can use album artist tags (i.e. on every non-compilation album), so I needed the following at line 230 to get the track titles to scrobble correctly:

python:


if not artist:

  artist = tags.getAlbumArtist()

Otherwise works great!

[ronie]

thanx i'll add your change in the next version!

[Habitual_Sinner]

Hey, playing from my library works great but scrobbling doesn't seem to work from TuneIn radio, I can see some of the artists/tracks in the log but they don't all appear, it's quite random as in it recognises the first two songs played and then nothing and sometimes I can see a track in now playing on last.fm but it doesn't get scrobbled.

How do you stop the "Updating session Key" Notifications? I would want to see them for debugging purposes, but not if everything is working as it should.

Feature Request
Hello @ronie !
Could you kindly enable scrobbling of music videos. I don't mean the music videos in the Kodi video nodes but music with MP4 file extension fully tagged with MusicBrainz Picard, with complete MBIDs and scanned into the Music library. They never scrobble for me but MP3, FLAC and other audio formats work just fine. I added .mp4 musicextension in the advancedsettings.

[Sasho]

I've the same request as TimeZone before me, enable scrobble of videos from concerts indexed by musicbrainz in the Music library as individual songs.

Not proving any log because this is a missing functionality and not a bug imo.

Thanks for the great work otherwise!
